You can use hamsters in other ways to generate power....

See here for 42 ways.

I like:
Quote:
Convince hamsters they're really lemmings. Show cliff to hamsters. Install turbine halfway down cliff.
and
Quote:
Take two hamsters, run one through a klein bottle to convert it to anti- matter. Combine the first hamster with the anti-hamster. Harness the resultant massive burst of energy as per #38 above.
particularly.

All the while singing one of my favourite songs from Holland:

Tulips and Hamster jam.

About a million. But probably most famous from The Monkees and the A team.

See, why do I always think that line comes from one of the Eastwood-Leone films? When I've seen the Magnificent Seven at least 10 times?

Those jelly lolly snakes are okay though. Or used to be.

As a young lad I remember (before eating them obviously) being able to coil them up and they'd unwind quite spectacularly (for a jelly lolly). These days you wind them up and they just sort of lie there in the shape you put them in, which is a totally unamusing way to play with your food. You tell that to kids today and they look at you as if you're strange.

I used to roll fizzers up and put them in my mouth at once.

Fizzers being long and flat and very sticky if they get warm. So rolling them into a snail meant that you could eat them comfortably. Of course, when the snail is big enough to fill your mouth, much enjoyment can ber had trying to talk around them. Great fun at parties.

here. Although I have never had any of the blue ones. Only the strawberry and creme soda.
